If you have 30% of Adenine, what is the percentage of the other 3 bases? 6.What was Rosalind Franklin contribution to determining the structure of DNA? Was she honored for this contribution? 7.Describe in detail the structure of DNA.
2. Write a claim to answer the question: How does the environment impact your genetics?
3. Then record your reasoning for each piece of evidence. The reasoning should explain how your evidence supports your claim.
4. On your own paper, use the chart to write a complete CER. If you do not finish this is homework.

In-text Citations
Any time you use a direct quote or summary from an article, you must give the author credit. To give the author credit you use in-text citations. Use either ther authors last name and data or title and date. For the Bullying artificial - (Dye, 2012). For the Starvation article (Dovey, 2014)
Example 1: DNA is vital because it has the "ability to pass on response templates for the need or specific class" (Dovey, 2014)
Example 2: DNA can pass o the template for specific cells from one generation to the next (Dovey, 2014)
Edit your paper from Wednesday and add in in-text citations.

Next, you will read two articles to write a CER to answer the question: How does the environment impact your genetics?
1. Read the two articles and record evidence in the chart to help you answer the question:
How does the environment impact your genetics? Record 4 pieces of evidence for each article.
2. Write a claim to answer the question: How does the environment impact your genetics?
3. Then record your reasoning for each piece of evidence. The reasoning should explain how your evidence supports your claim.
4. On your own paper, use the chart to write a complete CER. If you do not finish this is homework.5. We will review your writing and review for the midterm on Friday.
